A slanted, monoline sans with rounded construction and open apertures. Curves are smooth and geometrically inclined, while stems maintain an even stroke with subtly tapered endings that keep joins from feeling blunt. Uppercase forms are streamlined and slightly condensed in feel, with wide interior counters in letters like O, Q, and D. The lowercase has simple, single‑storey shapes (notably a and g) and a gently calligraphic rhythm created by the consistent oblique angle and softened terminals. Numerals follow the same rounded, unobtrusive logic, with clear, simple silhouettes suited to continuous text.
Well suited to editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, pull quotes, or secondary text. It can also serve contemporary branding, product communication, and UI copy where a clean, personable slanted sans helps differentiate hierarchy without adding decorative complexity.
The overall tone is contemporary and understated, projecting clarity without feeling rigid. Its italic slant adds motion and a lightly editorial flavor, giving text a brisk, polished cadence. The rounded forms and even stroke keep it approachable and friendly rather than technical.
The design appears intended to offer an italic companion with a modern, geometric foundation and a soft, readable finish. It prioritizes consistent rhythm, open counters, and a restrained personality that works across both display lines and longer passages.
Diagonal letters (K, V, W, X, Y) show steady, clean joins and a controlled slant that stays consistent across cases. The design relies on open spacing and smooth curvature more than sharp corners, supporting a calm, legible texture in longer settings.
